Dear Carol,
I totally agree with what MarkH and JohnL have said, especially what was said about the "quick response" method. I think maybe you should consider giving Dr Jensen a call. Further, through your meds, you are supposed to have an IMPROVED quality of life, not just a "different" one, as bob said. If a doctor is perfectly satisfied for you to be suffering side effects and not getting RESULTS, well, it's time to break off that relationship and try something - and someone - new.
It has been my experience that if a drug is NOT right, I know it almost immediately. And those who have a great response to, say, Prozac (I certainly didn't), like my mother in law, knew it was "right" from the first day - like suddenly someone turned on the lights.
Have HOPE - tell yourself it IS GOING TO GET BETTER and believe it. I do not believe life has to suck - I just don't buy that. I may die trying but I am going to get better.
Are you with me in this thinking?
By the way, I am among those who will be praying for you. No kidding.
You go, girl.
Karen
